I've noticed that Microsoft Safe Links is triggering
/cgi-bin/koha/opac-registration-verify.pl?token=X links.

This means that the end user ends up seeing "Registration invalid" because the
Microsoft link scanner has already verified the registration by hitting the
page with a GET. 

We should update opac-registration-verify.pl so that it requires the user to
click a button for a POST form confirming their registration.

(NOTE: Since opac-registration-verify.pl performs a state change, it should be
a POST anyway.)
